The invention relates to a method for preparing
cellulose nitrate for an explosive from wood pulp, in particular relates to a preparation method of
cellulose nitrate for an explosive and belongs to the technical field of
cellulose preparation. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: adding 20-30 parts by weight of wood pulp in 500 parts by weight of mixed acid, carrying outmiddle-low temperature
nitration reaction and then washing; and then successively carrying out boil washing, shredding and refine washing so as to obtain the cellulose
nitrate for the explosive. In the preparation method of the cellulose nitrate, the wood pulp is used as a
raw material, which is not a precedent in the field of military cellulose nitrate, thereby broadening the use range of the
raw material in nitrated cellulose production, and simultaneously, the wood pulp is cheaper than cotton linter and can be used as the
raw material of energy-containing nitrated cotton for production, thereby greatly solving the cost problem of the raw material; and at the same time, the
environmental protection pressure problem brought by a large amount of
cotton dust, black liquid and acidic
wastewater which are generated in the processes of cotton opening, boiling, bleaching and
drying refined cotton when a nitrated cotton product is prepared by utilizing the cotton linter as the raw material is solved.
